1. Made of TRABECULAE
2. Fill inner layer of most bones
3. Bone marrow cavity absent
4. Bone marrow produces red corpuscles and white granular corpuscles
5. Forms the ends of epiphyses of long bones | 5 Characteristics of Spongy Bone |
1. Made of OSTEONS
2. Fill outer layer of most bones
3.Bone marrow cavity present in center
4. Bone marrow stores fat
5. Forms shaft or diaphysis of long bone | 5 Characteristics of Compact bone |
Centrally located mesenchymal cells cluster and differentiate into osteoblasts forming an ossification center that produces the first trabeculae of spongy bone | Step 1 of Intramembranous Formation |
-Osteoblasts begin to secrete osteoid, which calcifies in a few days
-Trapped osteoblasts become osteocytes | Step 2 of Intramembranous Ossification |
-Accumulating osteoid is laid down between embryonic blood vessels in a manner that results in a network of trabeculae
-Vascularized mesenchyme condenses on the external face of the woven bone and becomes the periosteum | Step 3 of Intramembranous Ossification |
-Trabeculae just deep to the periosteum thickens and mature lamellar bone replaces them forming compact bone plates
-Spongy bone consisting of distinct trabeculae persists internally and its vascular tissue becomes red marrow | Step 4 of Intramembranous Ossification |
1. Blood vessels penetrate the perichondrium in center of diaphysis and stimulate osteoprogenitor cells of internal layer of perichondrium to enlarge and become osteoblasts
2. Osteoblasts secrete enzyme, encouraging Ca salts to secrete matrix
3. Osteoblasts form thin layer of calcified bone (bony collar)
4. Bony collar and newly calcified matrix restrict nutrient flow to chondrocytes, so they die opening cavities
5. In cavities, osteoblasts form new spongy bone tissue
6. Osteoclasts digest out more cavity, forming marrow cavity for diaphysis | Enchondrial Ossification: Steps at primary ossification center |
-More blood vessels enter diaphysis bringing with osteoprogenitor cells that develop into osteoblasts which produce spongy bone
-Secondary centers do not begin until after birth
-After secondary centers have formed, bone tissue completely replaces cartilage except in Articular cartilage and epiphyseal plate | Enchondrial Ossification: Steps of Secondary Ossification Center |
Resting Zone: epiphyseal side (no mitosis)
Proliferating cartilage zone: mitosis
Hypertrophic cartilage zone: cartilage cells enlarging, older chondrocytes in stack are closer to diaphysis, lacunae erode and enlarge, leaving interconnecting spaces
Calcified cartilage zone: dying cartilage cells on diaphyseal plate , matrix begins to deteriorate, allowing blood vessels to invade
Ossification Zone: calcified spicules are invaded marrow elements from mudullary cavity, osteoclasts partly erode cartilage spicules then osteoblasts cover them with new bone | 4 Zones of epiphyseal plate |
1. New osteons are constructed on outside of bone
2. Osteoblasts from periosteum add new bone tissue, enclosing a blood vessel running through periosteum
3. Once blood vessel's enclosed, periosteum becomes endosteum inside the newly formed canal
4. Osteoblasts in endosteum continue to make more bone tissue in concentric rings resulting in a new osteon
5. While new bone is being made on outside of bone, osteoclasts in medullary cavity endosteum destroy bone lining marrow cavity | Growth in Thickness steps |
Osteoclasts: move along bone surface, digging depressions as they break down bone matrix (break down to free calcium)
Osteoblasts: deposit calcium into bone, remaking it'

Normal bone growth in young people | Growth Hormone (pituitary gland and thyroxin) |
Increases Ca in blood and increases blood calcium levels when they drop too low | Parathyroid Hormone |
-Increases osteoblast activity
-Accelerates deposit of Ca into bone
-Blood Ca levels decrease
-Released from thyroid gland, decreases blood calcium levels when they are too high | Calcitonin (thyroid) |
-Sun converts cholesterol into vitamin D
-Needed to absorb Ca from intestine | Vitamin D (calcitriol) |
Decrease in vitamin D in children; cartilage cells grow; ossification occurs but little calcification; bones bow under weight because they are soft | Rickets |
Decrease in vitamin D in adults | Osteomalacia |
